Survival outcomes of laparoscopic versus open total gastrectomy with nodal dissection for gastric cancer in a high‐volume Japanese center: A propensity score‐matched analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 53-62, January 2023., 2023
To compare the survival outcomes of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) with those of open total gastrectomy (OTG), 580 patients were enrolled and 1:1 propensity score matching was implemented to reduce selection bias. Five‐year overall survival was better in the LTG group, and there was no significant difference in overall survival according to ...

Clinical outcomes of single incision laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer: A propensity score‐matched analysis between well‐experienced and novice surgeons

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 102-109, January 2023., 2023
SILS is a technically challenging procedure for novice surgeons. We evaluate the clinical outcomes of SILS for colorectal cancer performed by novice surgeons. SILS was safely performed by novice surgeons under the guidance of well‐experienced surgeons, and could provide satisfactory oncological outcomes. Abstract Background Single incision laparoscopic

Treatment strategies for unruptured pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysms associated with celiac artery occlusion

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 182-189, January 2023., 2023
Since celiac artery occlusion represents a common attributable aetiology for these aneurysms, restoration of blood flow to the regions supplied by the celiac artery should also be taken into account when designing a treatment plan. Here, we present 4 cases of PDA aneurysms coexisting with coeliac artery occlusion, all of which were managed with bypass ...

Current status of liver transplantation for non‐B non‐C liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 42-52, January 2023., 2023
Recently, the cases of LT for non‐B non‐C cirrhosis and HCC have been increasing in Japan as well as worldwide. Perioperative management of non‐B non‐C liver disease is problematic due to various risk factors, including alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome‐related risks, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.

Prognostic factors in conversion surgery following nab‐paclitaxel with gemcitabine and subsequent chemoradiotherapy for unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer: Results of a dual‐center study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 157-166, January 2023., 2023
For radical surgery after induction gemcitabine along with nab‐paclitaxel and subsequent chemoradiotherapy for unresectable locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, CA19‐9 normalization and maintenance of good nutritional status during treatment until surgery were important for prolonged prognosis.

Prediction of need for bowel resection in acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion: A retrospective study of 48 Japanese patients

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 175-181, January 2023., 2023
In a study of 48 patients with acute superior mesenteric artery occlusion, a logistic regression model using time from onset to diagnosis and the occlusion site of superior mesenteric artery showed 78.6% sensitivity in ruling out cases requiring bowel resection.

Do postoperative infectious complications really affect long‐term survival in colorectal cancer surgery? A multicenter retrospective cohort study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 110-120, January 2023., 2023
This multicenter retrospective cohort study suggested that postoperative infection (PI) after curative colorectal surgery (CRC) is associated with impaired oncological outcomes. Strategies to prevent PI and implement appropriate postoperative treatment may improve the quality of care and oncological outcomes in patients undergoing curative CRC surgery.
